She said she hopes people will not view animal rights sup porters as a bunch of "crazies who just love animals.” "We love people too. but the planet cannot survive with human beings alone; we are un neceesarily destroying animals, and as humans we are the ones that have to stop it,” she said. The march culminated “World Week for l.ab Animals” for local animal activists. Although national animal rights groups had asked for civil disobedience to occur during the week, activists in Kugene had not been trained in civil disobiedience, so a decision on whether to use it never arose, Kang said. “We tried to keep it orderly and keep people on the sidewalks,” she said. This is the fourth year the march has been held in Kugene. and during that time Nettles said she has seen an increase in people getting involved with the issue. The growing popularity of the animal rights issue subsequent ly is worrying researchers, she said. "In the research community they are hiring public relations firms so they can learn how to combat the 'opposition.' " Net tles said. Louis Singer of Eugene, who participated in the march, said support for the march came from outside the local area. “People came down from Portland and up from Med ford." Singer said. Still, he said, the marches "manage to get bigger and big ger each year."

Data concerning the actions within laboratories are available to the public and books on animal rights and research laboratories can he found at the University library’. Goskie said. “A lot of people were so upset about the destruction caused by the AI.F when they broke into the labs, but they don’t think of the millions that are being wasted by animal research and that most of this research does not prove anything,” she said. In November of last year, a group called the Animal Libera tion Front broke into two I tniversitv research laboratories and destroyed $50,000 worth of equipment. More than 100 animals were taken by the ALF during the break-in. Statements released by the University and by researchers .it the time of the break-in affirmed that the University maintains ethical standards and pro cedures in regards to animal research.
